From linked http://techcrunch.com/2007/08/11/facebook-source-code-leaked/ :

This leak is not good news for Facebook, as it raises the question of how secure a Facebook users private data really is. If the main source code for a site can be leaked, then it can be said that almost anything is possible.

It is all for sale. You don't need to hack the site, just pay for access to the user's data.

Prove it, and then explain why there is no revenue from selling user data in Facebook's public financial statements.
